1. To obtain Data Collector files run Sales-n-Stats installation wizard and proceed to the Step 1. Defining Data Collector location. 2. Without shutting down installation wizard open the directory where you have chosen to install Sales-n-Stats application (for Windows the default directory is C:\Program Files\Sales-n-Stats). Inside Sales-n-Stats directory find the directory called var. Inside var directory find .zip archive containing Data Collector files. If you are using free version then the file is called free_collector.zip, in commercial version the file is called sns.zip 3. Upload the contents of this .zip file to your server, put it to the directory where you want to locate Data Collector, for example, http://myhost.com/my/collector/path. Note: either unzip this file locally and then upload all the files to your web server or upload zip file to your web server and then unzip it. Some hosting services allow uploading and unpacking .zip archives which should be much faster then uploading entire directory. 4. Open Sales-n-Stats Installation Wizard at the URL page, for example, http://myhost.com/my/collector/path/install.php in your web browser. Then follow the Installation Wizard instructions. 5. Do not forget to configure file access permissions (Unix only!) by using the following commands: chmod 777 conf, chmod 777 conf/* 6. Setup will check PHP configuration on your server.
If everything is [OK] click Next. If something [FAILED] contact your server administrator and inform him about the problem. 7. Enter your web server details and MySQL database information.
8. Verify if all the provided information is correct. Click Next to continue or click Back to change the information.
9. Wait till the installation script creates the necessary folders, database tables and inserts data into the tables. The time necessary for this step depends on the speed of your server. When this installation step is finished and everything is [OK], click Next to continue. If something is marked as [FAILED] contact your server administrator about the problem. 10. You will be notified if the installation was successful.
Insert the URL from the 'Site Tracker' field into each page of your site you want to be tracked. For the detailed information refer to the 'Integrating Sales-n-Stats into your website'. Enter the URL from the 'Data Collector URL' field into the 'Data Collector URL' field (Step 1. Defining Data Collector location) while updating license and then select 'Use previously installed Data Collector' option. To get an idea of how the system works see Quick Start. Add “quick_start” to the URL from the 'Data Collector URL' field, for example, http://myhost/my/sns_collector/quick_start and enter this URL into your browser address line. |
